Celestial wedding invitations
A celestial invitation lit by candlelight and stars
Midnight Velvet in its Celestial mode is for night-sky weddings: violet and silver on ink plum, moon and stars, a stained-glass arch. Guests strike a match (swipe or tap), a row of candles warms up and your names appear. Nothing flashes.
The countdown, schedule, story, gallery and RSVP all keep the same mood, and the cello score starts only after the guest taps.

Tips for your celestial invitation
- Evening ceremony? Put the time zone on every event; the add-to-calendar buttons handle the rest.
- Dark designs still need readable text: we check contrast on every mode.
- Cocktail or black tie optional suits a night wedding; add the one-line explanation.
Questions couples ask
Is the celestial invitation always dark?
The Celestial mode is violet and silver on ink plum. The same design, Midnight Velvet, also has a Velvet mode in oxblood and gold, and a light Ivory velvet mode if you want the candlelit opening without the night sky.
Is the text easy to read on a dark design?
Yes. We check text contrast on every color mode, and guests who prefer less motion get a calmer opening. Nothing flashes.
What does the celestial design sound like?
Solo cello with sparse piano and a low choir pad, in a 90-second loop that lifts from minor to major. It starts only after the guest taps, and every screen has a mute button.
Does it have a countdown?
Yes, drawn as a moon-phase countdown to your date, along with the schedule, your story, a gallery and the RSVP.
